2nd Edition
by Christopher Clarke (Author), Anthony Dux (Author)
Chest X-rays for Medical Students offers
a fresh analytical approach to identifying chest abnormalities, helping
medical students, junior doctors, and nurses understand the underlying
physics and basic anatomical and pathological details of X-ray images of
the chest. The authors provide a memorable framework for analysing and
presenting chest radiographs, with each radiograph appearing twice in a
side-by-side comparison, one as seen in a clinical setting and the
second highlighting the pathology.
This new second edition
includes significant revisions, improved annotations of X-rays, expanded
pathologies, and numerous additional high-quality images. A
comprehensive one-stop guide to learning chest radiograph
interpretation, this book:
- Aligns with the latest Royal College of Radiologists’ Undergraduate Radiology Curriculum
- Offers guidance on how to formulate normal findings
- Features self-assessment tests, presentation exercises, and varied examples
- Includes sections on radiograph quality X-ray hazards and precautions
Chest X-rays for Medical Students is an ideal study guide and clinical reference for any medical student, junior doctor, nurse or radiographer.
